Just an opinion

To me linux is about webapps.
Once you have xorg up and opera (without cookies or popups or javascript) for surfing, and firefox for anything you have to log into, thats it.
Now you have to figure out how to develop webapps!
iceWM provides a small basic desktop with low bloat.
Gavin's quickguide shows how I got it up n running.
Other desktop stuff to me is fancy shmancy and useless.
just an opinion..

Re: Just an opinion

As you like it. As every user likes it. What ever every user likes. The free choice.
My opinion.


Ability is nothing without opportunity.

Maybe I'm used to have it too comforted, so I'll stick to KDEmod.

Re: Just an opinion

There is no such thing as "just an opinion".  Opinions are like asses, everyone has one and they are best kept to yourself.  This is place in 98% flame free ATM.  I like it that way.

I haven't got one, I wouldn't know where to keep it. And I suppose some people have a great many. Or do you mean arses? (Sorry ... I don't want to start a transatlantic war!)
